Window Installation & Replacement in Paphos

The sealed unit has failed and let moist air in. The fix is usually replacing just the glass unit, not the whole frame — a fraction of full replacement cost. Widespread misting across many windows of the same age suggests the batch is failing and full replacement may be better value.

Double glazing (two panes with a sealed gas gap) is the modern default. Triple adds insulation and noise benefits that matter most in cold climates and on noisy roads; elsewhere the extra cost rarely pays back. Spend first on installation quality and low-E coatings — a badly fitted triple-glazed unit performs worse than a well-fitted double.

Yes — pros replace one opening at a time so the house is never fully open, and cold-weather installation is routine in cold climates. Sealants and foams have temperature limits, so extreme cold or rain may shift a schedule, but winter is often the quieter, cheaper season to book.

Replacing a window in an existing opening takes 2-4 hours per window for an experienced crew — a whole house is usually 1-3 days. The wait is in manufacturing: made-to-measure windows typically take 2-8 weeks from survey to fitting.

In Paphos, prefer installers who measure on-site before quoting, explain glazing specs (U-value, low-E, argon) rather than just brand names, and put lead time, making-good of reveals, and disposal in writing. Certification schemes and manufacturer-accredited installer lists are strong filters where they exist.

Thermal-break aluminium double-glazed windows typically land €250-600 per window fitted, with shutters and fly screens extra. A typical 3-bed house full replacement lands €3,000-7,000.
